It was released December 7, 2010, ten days before the movie came out. The soundtrack to Joseph Kosinski's TRON: Legacy was composed by Daft Punk. Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo Daft Punk chronology 2007.It's not the best soundtrack of all time - I think it'll take a lot to beat Vangelis' Blade Runner score for me - but in my opinion it could be up there with the greats. So, I've gone from being excited about the movie, to being excited about the soundtrack and now the soundtrack is making me even more excited about the movie. Hollywood Records have a mini mix of the album available for streaming over on MySpace if you still haven't made up your mind. They're mostly orchestral, but with some more great synth and wobbly bass action, particularly on ' Castor' and ' Sea Of Simulation'. Of course, that should be the end of it, but if you manage to get hold of all of the various versions of the soundtrack, there are actually another nine tracks to enjoy. I'll certainly be sitting in the cinema to very end, just to hear it played very loud and in surround sound. The detuned 303 is back, along with the epic synth chords and thundering timpani, all backed with that wonderful string section, and the horns coming in for the finale. All of the best elements from the entire score in 3 minutes 18 seconds. And what a tune they've got to play them out. I'm starting to get too much of an idea of what is going to happen in the film now, especially as the next track is called ' Flynn Lives', which gracefully builds the strings back up, all the way to the fade to black moment when the end titles start rolling. less than a minute ago via web Wil Wheaton wilwĮven without seeing the film you can almost feel the tension and visualise the battles happening while ' Disc Wars' and ' C.L.U.' are playing out before the ethereal, moving, ' Arrival' slows the pace down again. This is in stark contrast to next track, ' Rectifier', which has very ominous string stabs, evoking a feeling along the lines of the classic Psycho riff.bbpBox14103029687001088 Īssuming that you've heard it is breathtaking, everything you've heard about Daft punk's Tron: Legacy soundtrack is true. ' Solar Sailer' could easily become a chill out classic with it's arpeggiated synths and bassline blending beautifully with the strings. I love to hear some of them fleshed out into 4 or 5 minute floor fillers - by the the duo themselves, as opposed to some of the awful "remixes" that have been cropping on YouTube for months. In fact that would be my biggest criticism of the the soundtrack - not enough of the tracks break the three minute mark. The single 'Derezzed' is pure Daft Punk, fast, energetic and very electronic, it such a shame that it only lasts 1 minute and 44 seconds. ' End Of Line' brings back the synths into and some fantastic little 8-bit bleepy samples. The next three tracks bring the pace down a bit and increase the amount of strings, and are much more like a traditional movie score because of it.

Apparently, while Daft Punk were filming their cameo appearance one of the cameras broke down, so while it was being fixed the cast and crew were treated to a warehouse DJ set, with everyone in full costume. This meant that the moviemakers were able to play the actual score on set during the filming. Legacy director Joe Kosinski met with Thomas Bangalter & Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo early on and they started writing the music as the script was being finalised and the storyboarding and pre-visualization on the movie was beginning. The Tron soundtrack is their first new music since 2005's Human After All (not counting remixes and live stuff) and part of the reason for this long hiatus is because they've been working on the soundtrack almost as long as the film has been in production - even before the script was finished. I was hooked the first time I heard that dirty, detuned TB303 riff bubbling up. It was directed by Spike Jonze and the song drifts in and out of the background as the dog has conversations with people on the street, very much like a soundtrack. It featured a guy in a dog suit, with a broken leg, carrying a beatbox and walking around the streets of New York. I've been a fan of the French duo since I first saw the video for their breakthrough hit ' Da Funk' back in 1994. When I found out that Daft Punk were going to score it, I think it's safe to say I was even more excited. When I first heard that there was going to be a sequel to Tron I was very excited.
